The moment that broke Guardiola on day a decade of glory endedImage source, Getty ImagesImage caption, Pep Guardiola won 416 of his 593 games in charge of Manchester CityByShamoon HafezManchester City reporter at Etihad StadiumPublished4 minutes agoCommentsPep Guardiola had been playing it cool in the scorching heat of his final game in charge of Manchester City. Then he cracked. There were tears - and plenty of them.As captain Bernardo Silva's number 20 went up on the fourth official's board on 59 minutes, Guardiola could not keep his emotion in check any longer.The Portugal playmaker shed tears as he was given a guard of honour by both sets of players as he left the pitch. And it was then that they started to stream down his manager's cheeks too.The two men, such pivotal figures in City's recent domination of English football, embraced on the touchline.That raw moment of affection between two greats of the Premier League was captured by photographers and will be printed, framed and hung up in the corridors of Etihad Stadium alongside those of icons Kevin de Bruyne, Sergio Aguero and Yaya Toure.Guardiola wiped his face dry with his white t-shirt and tried to regain his composure as his side strained for one final victory under his management.It was not to be. But despite defeat at the hands of an Aston Villa side high on success after Wednesday's Europa League win, the loss was rendered irrelevant by the sound of the full-time whistle that sparked emotion on the pitch and in the stands.Guardiola attempted to find the words to sum up the feelings of the day. "This chapter will always be there," said the 55-year-old."Bernardo was emotional today, before the game. If you want to cry then cry, if you want to laugh then laugh. Emotions - you have to express them. I don't cry, but when I see somebody else cry, then I cry.To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.This video can not be playedFigure caption...
